i'm a dreamer, lives i would've liked to live, the family you make for yourself

I must've completely flipped my lid now...
...Because I feel like my ideal life would be to vanish into the city or run off to some quiet place and just live with Solf and Ryoji and work on my music.

I guess if we went back home (to Amestris) Solf would have to lie low...so he could take care of the house... I'd get a real job this time if I had to. I owe Solf for the years that he supported me. As for Ryoji, heh heh, Ryoji could do whatever he liked.

Hmmm~ I'm just daydreaming. Don't mind me.

	[~~well ain't that cute but it's wrong~~] I like how even in your ridiculous daydreams, Kimblee is the housewife. Anyway, as you know, it's only a daydream with about a million reasons why it couldn't really happen. That being said, it's still pretty gross. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Well, at first I thought Solf would do some kind of work, like before, but then I realized that back home he might be in some kind of trouble and couldn't just be out on the street. Anyway, I know it's just a daydream, Izaya. You didn't have to say anything if it bugs you so much. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The fact that it bugs me so much is the very reason I had to say something. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Would it make you feel any better to know I think I might hate you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	prophetizaya 2010-07-16 10:05 pm UTC (link)
	Hah! You hate me? I wasn't even trying to make you hate me, but I guess that's what happens when you mess with someone's family. It's too bad you don't get as intense as he does. Or have I not seen your dark side yet? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	betweenphotos 2010-07-16 10:12 pm UTC (link)
	I... I don't know... But for my brother's sake, I might find I have something like that inside me... It seems like Solf and I are most alike in secret, inner ways, after all. You want to try me, Izaya? (Of course, I'm powerless without a body. But I was a relatively accomplished alchemist.) (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh? That sounds like it could be interesting. Unleash all your anger upon me, then. I'm looking forward to it. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	No room for Machi in your make believe family, eh, Lon? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	betweenphotos 2010-07-16 08:02 pm UTC (link)
	Oh! Ha ha, I'm sure you'd fit in fine, Machi. [Lon looks sort of embarrassed.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	machi 2010-07-16 09:37 pm UTC (link)
	But you do not see me as part of your family like Ryoji? Well, that is okay. I do not picture you in my dream family either -- that would be just Kimblee and me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	betweenphotos 2010-07-16 09:52 pm UTC (link)
	You and I have different dreams. You dream is probably more feasible. ...Good luck, Machi. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Do you miss having a family, too, Lon-san? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	betweenphotos 2010-07-16 07:54 pm UTC (link)
	Uh-huh! [Lon nods vigorously. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	missjunes 2010-07-16 09:39 pm UTC (link)
	It's hard, huh? I miss my big bro and my mom a lot. I have my dad, though! And Adachi-san, who is kind of like my family now, too. And even if he can't see you...you have your big bro, too! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	betweenphotos 2010-07-16 09:51 pm UTC (link)
	(Ha ha, "big bro") Yeah, yeah, I do. [Lon smiles.] You're so nice to me, Nanako-chan. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	detectivedojima 2010-07-16 07:10 am UTC (link)
	Heh. I think about these kinds of things a lot, too. Like what I would do if we ever made it back to Inaba... (Reply to this) (Thread)

	betweenphotos 2010-07-16 07:57 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah? What would you want to happen, Mr. Dojima? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

It's hard to say what I would "want" exactly since there are some things that would come inevitably -- like Adachi going to prison. And the chances are high that he'd be sentenced to death by hanging.

...I don't like to think about it. It's troubling. Nanako and I are closer now then we were when Chisato passed away, but her cousin is returning home in the spring and then we'll be alone together again.

The options don't look good, you know? But in the ideal sense, I guess I would say something similar to what you said -- Adachi would have to lay low. Nanako and I would go back to our usual routine.

	Oh...sentenced to death... (What kind of sentence did Solf say he'd had...?) I see what you mean. It's hard to love a killer. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	detectivedojima 2010-07-16 10:12 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah...it seems likely that that would be the outcome. He's responsible for two murders and a rape, and indirectly to five kidnappings and attempted murders. ...[sigh] You got that right. I guess we have that in common. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	betweenphotos 2010-07-16 10:15 pm UTC (link)
	That many... The odds do sound poor. I guess it's good to talk then. We can understand one another. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	detectivedojima 2010-07-16 10:21 pm UTC (link)
	That's true. How do you deal with it? I try to put it out of my mind most of the time...and think of all the good things I've seen from him instead, all the months we were partners. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	betweenphotos 2010-07-16 10:45 pm UTC (link)
	Actually, it's pretty similar for me. I try not to think about the killing too much either. I think about the good times we had. When I have the opportunity, I try to encourage him to behave in a law-abiding manner and to support him in his friendly relationships with other people. Sort of like role models, you know?

I see. I try to guide him along, too, but sometimes I feel Adachi wants people to think he's awful. Every time someone complimented him about how he was "improving" he would get defensive and say that it wasn't true. It almost seems like it's some sort of defense mechanism.

I don't know about how he was before he came here, but Kimblee seems like a good guy. I don't know him well and I can't say anything with certainty but when I see him play with my daughter and make her laugh, I can't bring it in myself to picture him as a monster.

Maybe you should warn people not to say anything to avoid any back-sliding.

Solf is... Well, to me, he's always ultimately been a good guy. But I didn't see him at his...worst. If you don't want to know, don't ask to Colonel Mustang about it.

But if I didn't think he could be trusted with your daughter, I would do or say something about it. I don't see him being bad here without provocation.
